Book of the Month February '15

It's taken me a while to get this post written, but it is finally here and another modern miracle is that I actually managed to finish a book in February! In fact I finished two. Finishing Les Mis couldn't come soon enough after many months of struggling through it. EG is also relieved that that book is out of our lives!

But February's book of the month has to go to Simon Callow's Charles Dickens and the Great Theatre of the World. I love Dickens and so any book that is about him will be of interest. Knowing very little about Dickens, it was a good book to read and I find that I look at his novels in a different way, now that I know little more about what was going on behind the scenes. It's a good sized book, not too short so that you only get the bare bones of his life. But neither is it so big that you may get every detail but you feel like you have to climb a mountain to get there! 

Anyway worth a read in my opinion!
